Would there be some benefit in taking the first step of simply listing FPSs,
without doing their detailed documentation?

A small additional step might be FPS list + URL (of archived mailing list proposal). The discussion thread should be easy enough to find from that.

Also, I've found that if a mailing list is archived with simple web access for each message, Google can be remarkably good at finding old messages.
